Ma Po Tofu From Cooking Light


Tried this the other day and loved it! If you use a couple of 8 oz. Packages of diced tofu, found in the produce section of your grocery store, and bottled minced ginger, this goes together in no time. A rice cooker does a great job with brown rice, too, and will keep the rice warm until serving. A quick, healthy dish from cooking light.
